Brett Favre Plus Alleged Pictures to Jenn Sterger Equals Media Mess?

by Milton KentFiled under: Jets, Vikings, NFL Rumors, NFL Quarterbacks, Sports Business and MediaDon't be surprised if you learn far more about a woman named Jenn Sterger than she ever wanted you to in the near future because of what she claims arrived on her cell phone.

And while Sterger's unexpected return to the national stage will have some root in the media's obsession with all things Brett Favre, it will largely be based on the changing culture of whatever passes for journalism these days.

Actually, Sterger, 26, is not an unknown quantity. A random camera shot of her during an ABC college football telecast in 2005 got Sterger noticed and she's steadily been in front of a camera since.

From there, she wrote occasional columns for SportsIllustrated.com. Sterger has posed for Maxim and Playboy, and currently hosts "The Daily Line" on Versus, while serving as game-day host during New York Jets games.

To be sure, Sterger is no babe in the woods when it comes to media exposure. Still, she probably doesn't want the attention she's received this week because of her alleged connection to Favre and because she knows Deadspin.com editor A.J. Daulerio.

According to a post on Deadspin Wednesday, Daulerio and Sterger met to discuss a project for the site. The conversation morphed into a discussion about the novelty of athletes sending photos of their penises via cell phones.
